Eight logos for Trump’s “Space Force”

Eight logos for Trump’s “Space Force” have been designed by the leading designers for Bloomberg Businessweek.
Ever since Richard Danne and Bruce Blackburn’s classic NASA logo, graphic design has helped blend our sci-fi dreams with the reality of space exploration.
At a meeting of the National Space Council in June, President Trump said he would direct the Pentagon and Department of Defense to create a sixth branch of the U.S. military–a so-called Space Force–which will focus on dominating the great beyond. The people at Bloomberg Businessweek asked eight prominent designers to create logos for it.
The best one, however, came from renowned 89-year-old designer Milton Glaser, designer of the iconic “I love New York” logo.

The image represents the relentless intrusion of the president in every aspect of our lives and future. The image can be read as his next conquest or simply that there is very little inside that skull.

Above, Space Force is a futuristic proposition born of nostalgia, embodied in a type mashup of NASA’s worm, sci-fi gaming, and metal bands whose events might inspire Trump’s own rallies. Below, SF takes on the language of an op-ed made of typefaces combined from various liberal media outlets.

UNITED STATES SPACE FORCE is empty at its center. It is a black hole of sorts, sucking anything that comes too close into its vortex, including even its own name.

One of the starting points for this design was the former logo for the U.S. Air Force, which was abandoned in 2000 for the angular eagle symbol we see more today. In the design for the Space Force, the U.S. star is piercing through the circle, overreaching its bounds.

What better way to solve knotty problems on Earth than by redirecting people’s attention to potential problems in space? This adorable alien serves as a representation of other “aliens” being caught in the cross hairs of current U.S. immigration policy.

I developed an obvious image of Earth surrounded by the words “SPACE FORCE,” suggesting satellites. Besides the obvious use of space for military purposes, I would hope it will be a collaborative force to monitor and help avoid polluting space.

Is the Trump presidency being written by Mel Brooks? The logo evokes Spaceballs, the Mel Brooks movie that has a bumbling dictator steering a ship with a store selling Spaceballs merchandise.
